CFC Teaching Manual

To get a free copy of a very good teaching manual, download this pdf file, written by IM Tom O'Donnell. Note that the information at the beginning of the manual is dated. For example, the CFC is no longer in Ottawa and the prices of chess equipment have changed over the years. Otherwise an excellent tool.
